Gross merchandise volume (GMV) fell 3.6 percent, while sales dropped 6.1 percent to €100 million, largely due to a shift towards a smaller, higher-quality product range. However, GMV began to recover in June, with growth strengthening in July, supporting expectations for a positive second half.
The Westwing Collection grew 19 percent year-on-year, reaching a record 65 percent of GMV, enhancing margins and brand positioning. The company also expanded into eight new countries and plans two further market entries by year-end.
Westwing reaffirmed its 2025 forecast of €425–455 million in revenue, equating to growth between -4 percent and +2 percent, alongside adjusted EBITDA of €25–35 million and a margin of 6–8 percent. Despite cautious sales expectations, the company anticipates stronger profitability and renewed growth momentum in 2026.
